> Before Emacs 29.1, selecting a region and running ispell-region would leave point and mark unchanged. Now it leaves one end of the region at the last place ispell stopped. I don’t know if this is intended behavior, but it is less convenient than the way it worked before.
It was deliberate, see bug#14816 (and the corresponding change to the
doc string of ispell-region). With Emacs 29.1, the region is left
around the portion of text that was not yet spell-checked, so it is
more useful for continuing spell-checking. I guess we could add a
user option to avoid doing that, for those who prefer the old
behavior, but is this really needed?
